Abstract Scope |
This presentation focuses on using the CALPHAD method to create Gibbs energy models and functions for corrosion-related components for inclusion in the Molten Salt Thermal Properties Database-Thermochemical (MSTDB-TC). These include envisioned reactor fluoride- and chloride-base systems together with the likely important corrosion products chromium, nickel, and iron. The role of thermodynamics in understanding corrosion mechanisms will be described and examples will be explored for utilizing the database in modeling corrosion in reactor performance codes. The current content of the MSTDB-TC and the means for obtaining a no-cost license for use of the database will be provided. |
